The first week I had my bike I had to get new sprockets and a chain. And of course you're flat broke after you first buy a bike it's just and extra kick in the nuts. So I feel ya man.

But one of the best things about buying a used bike, If you drop it your not as pissed. Unless the bike has never been dropped

I have the shop manual for that bike... downloaded it for $10 when I thought I was getting that 02 zx7. Now it is collecting dust... I have it printed and bound - 364 pages... will send it to you for $20, or you can download it from me for $10. 180 MB file.
